Hello!
I live in Norway (Finnaas parish, Hordaland county, western Norway). I got this
photo from an old Album at my grandparents house. Lot of old Kallevik /Kallevig
relatives emigrated to USA late in 1800 and beginning of 1900.
I do not know who the person at that photo is. It is probably taken around year
1900.
Most Kallevig relatives moved to Kandiyohi county Minnesota. They came from
Mosterhamn in Finnaas parish, Hordaland county. I do not know if anybody
settled in Northwood, Iowa. I only know that one family-member ended up in
Story County, Iowa around 1870-1880, using Mathiassen as surname. Another
brain came from Sveio (Sveen) Hordaland county, they could have used Aasbu,
Reierson/Rierson or Olson as surname. Haugesund is the nearest city.
I have a lot of old picture from relatives in USA, and I am curious about
finding out anything about them. Do you know if there is a way to find out who
this person is? Maybe he have grandchildren or great grandchildren living today
who can recognice him, and would like to have his photography.
Sincerely
Helga Kallevik
